Perovskite light-emitting device

ABSTRACT

A light-emitting layer for a halide perovskite light-emitting device, a method for manufacturing the same and a perovskite light-emitting device using the same are disclosed. The light-emitting layer can be manufactured by forming a first nanoparticle thin film by coating, on a member, a solution comprising halide perovskite nanoparticles having a halide perovskite nanocrystalline structure. Thereby, a nanoparticle light emitter has therein a halide perovskite having a crystal structure in which FCC and BCC are combined; and can show high color purity. In addition, it is possible to improve the luminescence efficiency and luminance of a device by making perovskite as nanoparticles and then introducing the same into a light-emitting layer.

TECHNICAL FIELD

The present disclosure relates to light-emitters and their light emitting device, and more particularly, to a light emitting layer for an organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite or inorganic metal halide perovskite light emitting device, a method for manufacturing the same, a light emitting device using the same, and a method for manufacturing the light emitting device.

BACKGROUND ART

The megatrend of the display market is shifting from the existing high-efficiency and high-resolution-oriented display, to the emotional image-quality display aiming at realizing a high color purity for demonstration of natural colors. In this respect, organic light-emitter-based organic light emitting diode (OLED) devices using organic light-emitters have remarkably developed, inorganic quantum dot LEDs with the improved color purity have been actively researched and developed as alternatives. However, in the viewpoint of emitting materials, both the organic light-emitters and the inorganic quantum dot light-emitters have intrinsic limitations.

The existing organic light-emitter have an advantage of high efficiency, but the existing organic light-emitter have a wide spectrum and poor color purity. Although the inorganic quantum dot light-emitter have been known to have good color purity because the luminescence occurs by quantum size effects, there is a problem that it is difficult to uniformly control the sizes of the quantum dots as the color approaches the blue color, and thereby the size distribution deteriorate the color purity. Also, both light-emitters (organic emitters and inorganic quantum dot emitters) are disadvantageously expensive. Thus, there is a need for new types of organic-inorganic-hybrid light-emitter that compensate for the disadvantages of the organic light-emitters and inorganic quantum dot emitters and maintains their merits.

Since the organic-inorganic-hybrid emitting materials have advantages of low manufacturing costs and simple manufacturing and device manufacturing processes and also have all advantages of organic emitting materials, which are easy to control optical and electrical properties, and inorganic emitting materials having high charge mobility and mechanical and thermal stability, the organic-inorganic-hybrid emitting materials are attracting attention academically and industrially.

Among them, since the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite materials have high color purity (full width at half maximum (FWHM)≈20 nm), simple color control, and low synthesis costs, the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite materials are very likely to be developed as the light-emitter. Since the high color purity from these materials can be realized because they have a layered structure in which a 2D (two-dimensional) plane made of the inorganic material is sandwiched between 2D planes made of the organic material, and a large difference in dielectric constant between the inorganic material and the organic material is large (ε_(organic)≈2.4, ε_(inorganic)≈6.1) so that the electron-hole pairs (or excitons) are bound to the inorganic 2D layer.

A material having the conventional perovskite structure (ABX₃) is inorganic metal oxide.

In general, the inorganic metal oxides are oxides, for example, materials in which metal (alkali metals, alkali earth metals, lanthanides, etc) cations such as Ti, Sr, Ca, Cs, Ba, Y, Gd, La, Fe, and Mn, which have sizes different from each other, are located in A and B sites, oxygen anions are located in an X site, and the metal cations in the B site are bonded to the oxygen anions in the X site in the corner-sharing octahedron form with the 6-fold coordination. Examples of the inorganic metal oxides include SrFeO₃, LaMnO₃, CaFeO₃, and the like.

On the other hand, since the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite has the ABX₃ in which organic ammonium (RNH₃) cations are located in the A site, and halides (Cl, Br, I) are located in the X site to form the organic-inorganic hybrid metal halide perovskite material, the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite are completely different from the inorganic metal oxide perovskite material in composition.

In addition, the materials vary in characteristics due to a difference in composition of the materials. The inorganic metal oxide perovskite typically has characteristics of superconductivity, ferroelectricity, colossal magnetoresistance, and the like, and thus has been generally conducted to be applied for sensors, fuel cells, memory devices, and the like. For example, yttrium barium copper oxides have superconducting or insulating properties according to oxygen contents.

On the other hand, since the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite (or inorganic metal halide perovskite) has a structure in which the organic plane (or “A site cation” plane in the perovskite crystal structure) and the inorganic plane are alternately stacked and thus has a structure similar to a lamellar structure so that the excitons are bound in the inorganic plane, it may be an ideal light-emitter that generally emits light having very high purity by the intrinsic crystal structure itself rather than the quantum size effect of the material.

If the organic ammonium (i.e. “A site” cation) in organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskites has a chromophore (mostly including a conjugated structure) which has a bandgap less than that of a crystal structure composed of a central metal and a halogen crystal structure (BX₆), the luminescence occurs in the organic ammonium. Thus, since light having high color purity is not emitted, a full width at half maximum of the luminescence spectrum becomes wider than 100 nm. Therefore, the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite incorporating the emitting organic ammonium are unsuitable for a light emitting layer. Thus, in this case, it is not very suitable for the light-emitter having the high color purity, which is highlighted in this patent. Therefore, in order to produce the light-emitter having the high color purity, it is important that the luminescence occurs in an inorganic lattice composed of the central metal-halogen elements without containing chromophore in organic ammonium site (i.e. “A site”). That is, this patent focuses on the development of the light-emitter having high color purity and high efficiency in the inorganic lattice. For example, although an electroluminescent device in which an emitting dye-containing organic-inorganic-hybrid material is formed in the form of a thin film rather than that of a particle and used as a light emitting layer, the emission originated from the emitting-dye itself, not the intrinsic crystal structure as disclosed in Korean Patent Publication No. 10-2001-0015084 (Feb. 26, 2001), light is not emitted from the perovskite lattice structure.

However, since the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite has small exciton binding energy, there is a fundamental problem that the luminescence occurs at a low temperature, but the excitons do not emit light at room temperature due to thermal ionization and delocalization of a charge carrier and thus are easily separated as free charge carriers and then annihilated. Also, there is a problem in that the excitons are annihilated by the layer having high conductivity in the vicinity of the excitons after the free charge carriers are recombined again to form excitons. Therefore, to improve luminescence efficiency and luminance of the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite-based LED, it is necessary to prevent the excitons from being quenched.

DISCLOSURE Technical Problem

To solve the abovementioned problems, the present inventive concept provides a light emitting layer for an organic-inorganic hybrid electroluminescence device having improved luminescence efficiency and durability (or stability) by synthesizing organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite or inorganic metal halide perovskite into a nanocrystals made of at least ternary compounds in unit crystal (≥3 components) (i.e. perovskite structure) instead of forming a polycrystal thin film in order to prevent thermal ionization, delocalization of charge carriers, and quenching of excitons, a manufacturing the same, a light emitting device, and a method for manufacturing the light emitting device.

<Light Emitting Layer for Organic-Inorganic-Hybrid Perovskite Light Emitting Device>

A method for manufacturing a light emitting layer for an organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite light emitting device according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described.

A method for forming the light emitting layer with an inorganic metal halide perovskite nanoparticle instead of the organic-organic hybrid perovskite nanoparticle is the same. Thus, the method for manufacturing the light emitting layer for the organic-organic hybrid perovskite light emitting device will be described as an example.

The method for manufacturing the light emitting layer for the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite light emitting device according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a step of preparing a light emitting layer coating member and a step of coating with a solution including an organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite nanoparticle including an organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite nanocrystal structure on the above-described light emitting layer coating member.

First, the light emitting layer coating member is prepared. The above-described light emitting layer coating member may be a substrate, an electrode, or a semiconductor layer. A substrate, an electrode, or a semiconductor layer, which is capable of being used for the light emitting device, may be used as the above-described substrate, electrode, or semiconductor layer. Also, the light emitting layer coating member may have a shape in which the substrate/electrode are successively stacked or a shape in which the substrate/electrode/semiconductor layer are successively stacked. Also, descriptions with respect to the above-described substrate, electrode, or semiconductor layer refer to those with respect to an ‘organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite light emitting device’ that will be described later.

FIG. 1 is a flowchart illustrating a method for manufacturing a solution including an organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite nanoparticle including an organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite nanocrystal structure according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 1 , a method for manufacturing a solution including an organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite nanocrystal particle including an organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite nanocrystal structure may include a step (S100) of a first solution in which organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite is dissolved in a polar solvent and a second solution in which an alkyl halide surfactant is dissolved in a non-polar solvent and a step (200) of mixing the first solution with the second solution to form a nanoparticle.

That is, the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite nanocrystalline particle according to the present invention may be manufactured through an inverse nano-emulsion method, or reprecipitation method.

Hereinafter, more specifically,

First, a first solution in which the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite is dissolved in a polar solvent and a second solution in which a surfactant is dissolved in a non-polar solvent are prepared (S100).

Here, the polar solvent (aprotic or protic) may include dimethylformamide, gamma butyrolactone, N-methylpyrrolidone, or dimethylsulfoxide, or isopropyl alcohol, but is not limited thereto.

Also, the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite may be a material having a 2D crystal structure. For example, the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite may be a structure of ABX₃, A₂BX₄, ABX₄, or A_(n−1)B_(n)X_(3n+1) (where, n is an integer between 2 to 6).

Here, the A is an organic ammonium or inorganic alkali metal material, the B is a metal material, and the X is a halogen element.

For example, the A may be, (CH₃NH₃)_(n), ((C_(x)H_(2x+1))_(n)NH₃)₂(CH₃NH₃)_(n), (RNH₃)₂, (C_(n)H_(2n+1)NH₃)₂, CF₃NH₃, (CF₃NH₃)_(n), ((C_(x)F_(2x+1))_(n)NH₃)₂(CF₃NH₃)_(n), ((C_(x)F_(2x+1))_(n)NH₃)₂, (C_(n)F_(2n+1)NH₃)₂, (CH(NH₂)₂), C_(x)H_(2x+1)(C(NH₂)₂), Cs, Rb, K (where n is an integer greater than 1, and x is an integer greater than 1), or a combination thereof. Also, the B may be a divalent transition metal, a rare earth metal, an alkaline earth metal, Pb, Sn, Ge, Ga, In, Al, Sb, Bi, Po, or a combination thereof. Here, the rare earth metal may be a divalent rare earth metal. For example, the rare earth metal may be Ge, Sn, Pb, Eu, or Yb. Also, the alkali earth metal may be, for example, Ca or Sr. Also, the X may be Cl, Br, I, or a combination thereof.

The perovskite may be prepared by combining the AX with BX₂ at a predetermined ratio. That is, the first solution may be formed by dissolving the AX and BX₂ in the polar solvent at a predetermined ratio. For example, the AX and BX₂ may be dissolved in the polar solvent at a ratio of 2:1 to prepare the first solution in which the A₂BX₃ organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite is dissolved.

Also, the non-polar solvent may include dichloroethylene, trichlorethylene, chloroform, chlorobenzene, dichlorobenzene, styrene, xylene, toluene, or cyclohexene, but is not limited thereto.

Also, the alkyl halide surfactant may have a structure of alkyl-X. Here, the halogen element corresponding to the X may include Cl, Br, or I. Also, the alkyl structure may include acyclic alkyl having a structure of C_(n)H_(2n+1), primary alcohol having a structure such as C_(n)H_(2n+1)OH, secondary alcohol, tertiary alcohol, alkylamine having a structure of alkyl-N (e.g., hexadecyl amine, 9-Octadecenylamine 1-Amino-9-octadecene (C₁₉H₃₇N)), p-substituted aniline, phenyl ammonium, and fluorine ammonium, but is not limited thereto.

A carboxylic acid (COOH) surfactant may be used instead of the alkyl halide surfactant.

For example, the surfactant may include a carboxylic acid such as a 4,4′-Azobis(4-cyanovaleric acid), an acetic acid, a 5-aminosalicylic acid, an acrylic acid, an L-aspentic acid, a 6-bromohexanoic acid, a bromoacetic acid, a dichloro acetic acid, an ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid, an isobutyric acid, an itaconic acid, a maleic acid, an r-maleimidobutyric acid, an L-malic acid, a 4-Nitrobenzoic acid, a 1-pyrenecarboxylic acid, or an oleic acid, but is not limited thereto.

Next, the first solution may be mixed with the second solution to form the nanoparticle. (S200).

In the step of mixing the first solution with the second solution to form the nanoparticle, it is preferable to mix the first solution by dropping into the second solution in drops. Also, the first solution may be stirred. For example, the second solution in which the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite (OIP) is dissolved may be slowly added dropwise into the second solution in which the alkyl halide surfactant that is strongly stirred is dissolved to synthesize the nanoparticle.

In this case, when the first solution drops are mixed with the second solution, the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite (OIP) is precipitated from the second solution due to a difference in solubility. Also, the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite (OIP) precipitated from the second solution generates an organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite nanocrystal (OIP-NC) that is well dispersed while stabilizing a surface thereof by the alkyl halide surfactant. Thus, a solution including the organic-inorganic hybrid metal halide perovskite colloidal nanoparticles and the plurality of alkyl halide organic ligands, inorganic binary compounds or combination thereof surrounding the organic-inorganic-hybrid metal halide perovskite nanocrystal may be prepared.

The solution including the organic-inorganic hybrid metal halide perovskite colloidal nanoparticles is applied on the light emitting layer coating member to form a first thin film of nanoparticles that is a light emitting layer.

FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view of a light emitting layer according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 2 , it is seen that the light emitting layer having the form of the first thin film 200 a of the nanoparticles on the light emitting layer coating member 100.

A step of forming the first thin film 200 a may use a solution process. When the solution process is used, the light emitting layer may be uniformly formed on the light emitting layer coating member.

The above-described solution process may include at least one process selected from the group consisting of spin-coating, bar coating, slot-die coating, Gravure-printing, nozzle printing, ink-jet printing, screen printing, electrohydrodynamic jet printing, and electrospray.

FIG. 3 is a sectional view of a light emitting layer according to another embodiment of the present invention.

The step of applying the solution including the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite nanoparticle including the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite nanocrystal structure on the light emitting layer coating member to form the first thin film of nanoparticles may be repeatedly performed several times to adjust a thickness of the light emitting layer.

Referring to FIG. 3 , the first thin film 20Na of nanoparticles may have a multilayer (N layers) structure.

FIGS. 4 a to 4 d are cross-sectional views of a light emitting layer according to further another embodiment of the present invention.

Before or after the step of forming the first thin film 200 a, a step of forming a second thin film of organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite microparticles, or of forming an organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite including the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite nanocrystal structure, on the light emitting layer coating member or the first thin film 200 a may be further performed.

Here, the second thin film of organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite microparticles or the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite may be formed by applying only the first solution, unlike the process in which the first solution and the second solution are mixed to manufacture the solution including the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite nanoparticle. In this case, unlike the solution including the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite nanoparticle including the above-described organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite nanocrystal structure, the second thin film of the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite includes the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite microparticles having a micro range or the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite crystal structure having several nano to several micro ranges.

In this case, a shape in which the above-described organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite microparticles 200 b is disposed on the first thin film 200 a as illustrated in FIG. 4(a), a shape in which the above-described first thin film 200 a is formed on the above-described organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite microparticles 200 b as illustrated in FIG. 4(b), a shape in which the above-described second thin film 200 c of the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite is disposed on the above-described first thin film 200 a as illustrated in FIG. 4(c), or a shape in which the above-described first thin film 200 a is formed on the above-described second thin film 200 c of the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite as illustrated in FIG. 4(d) may be formed on the above-described light emitting layer coating member 100.

The organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite microparticles may have various shapes such as a spherical shape and a polygonal shape.

Also, the first thin film 2000 a may range in thickness from 1 nm to 1 μm, and surface roughness may range of 0.1 nm to 50 nm.

Here, the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite nanocrystal particle may have a spherical, cylindrical, cylindroid, polyprism or two-dimensional (lamellar, plate) shape.

Also, the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite nanocrystal particle may have bandgap energy of 1 eV to 5 eV.

Also, the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite nanoparticle may have an emission wavelength of 200 nm to 1300 nm.

The organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite nanocrystal may have a size that is controllable by adjusting a length or a shape of the alkyl halide surfactant. For example, the adjustment of the shape may be controlled through the surfactant having a linear, tapered, or inverted triangular shape.

The generated organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite nanocrystal may have a size of 1 nm to 900 nm. If the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite nanocrystal has a size exceeding 900 nm, it is a fundamental problem in which the large non-radiative decay of the excitons can occur at room temperature by the thermal ionization and the delocalization of the charge carriers, and the exciton is separated as free charge carriers and then annihilated.

FIG. 5 is a schematic view illustrating a method for manufacturing the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite nanocrystal particle through an inverse nano-emulsion method, reprecipitation method, or hot injection method according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 5(a), the first solution in which the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite is dissolved in the polar solvent is added drop wise into the second solution in which the alkyl halide surfactant is dissolved in the non-polar solvent.

Here, the polar solvent (aprotic or protic) may include dimethylformamide, gamma butyrolactone, N-methylpyrrolidone, or dimethylsulfoxide, or isopropyl alcohol, but is not limited thereto.

Here, the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite may be a structure of ABX₃, A₂BX₄, ABX₄, or A_(n−1)B_(n)X_(3n+1) (where, n is an integer between 2 to 6). Here, the A is an organic ammonium or inorganic alkali metal material, the B is a metal material, and the X is a halogen element.

For example, the A may be (CH₃NH₃)_(n), ((C_(x)H_(2x+1))_(n)NH₃)₂(CH₃NH₃)_(n), (RNH₃)₂, (C_(n)H_(2n+1)NH₃)₂, CF₃NH₃, (CF₃NH₃)_(n), ((C_(x)F_(2x+1))_(n)NH₃)₂(CF₃NH₃)_(n), ((C_(x)F_(2x+1))_(n)NH₃)₂, (C_(n)F_(2n+1)NH₃)₂, (CH(NH₂)₂), C_(x)H_(2x+1)(C(NH₂)₂), Cs, Rb, K (where n is an integer greater than 1, and x is an integer greater than 1), or a combination thereof. Also, the B may be a divalent transition metal, a rare earth metal, an alkaline earth metal, Pb, Sn, Ge, Ga, In, Al, Sb, Bi, Po, or a combination thereof. Here, the rare earth metal may be a divalent rare earth metal, for example, Ge, Sn, Pb, Eu, or Yb. Also, the alkali earth metal may be, for example, Ca or Sr. Also, the X may be Cl, Br, I, or a combination thereof.

The perovskite structure may be formed through a combination of AX and BX₂ with different AX:BX₂ ratios. For example, the AX and BX₂ may be dissolved in the polar solvent at a ratio of 2:1 to prepare the first solution in which the A₂BX₃ organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite is dissolved.

When the A is CH₃NH₃, and the X is Br as an example of the AX synthesis, CH₃NH₂ (methylamine) and HBr (hydroiodic acid) may be dissolved under a nitrogen atmosphere to obtain CH₃NH₃Br through evaporation of the solvent.

Referring to FIG. 5(b), when the first solution is added to the second solution, the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite is precipitated from the second solution due to a difference in solubility. A surface of the precipitated organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite is surrounded by the alkyl halide surfactant and thus stabilized to generate an organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite nanoparticle 100 including the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite nanocrystal structure that is well dispersed. Here, the surface of the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite nanoparticle is surrounded by the organic ligands that include alkyl halide, inorganic binary compounds or combination thereof.

Thereafter, the polar solvent including the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite nanoparticle 100 that is dispersed in the non-polar solvent, in which the alkyl halide surfactant is dissolved, may be heated and thus selectively evaporated, or a co-solvent, in which all the polar and non-polar solvents are capable of being dissolved, may be added to selectively extract the polar solvent including the nanoparticle from the non-polar solvent, thereby obtaining the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite nanoparticle.

The organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite nanoparticle according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described.

FIG. 6 is a schematic view of the perovskite nanoparticle according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Here, FIG. 6 illustrates the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite nanocrystal particle. If the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite of FIG. 6 is changed into the inorganic metal halide perovskite, since the inorganic metal halide perovskite nanocrystal particle is provided, their descriptions are the same.

Referring to FIG. 6 , the light-emitter according to an embodiment of the present invention may include a 2D organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite nanocrystal 110 having a lamellar structure, in which an organic plane (or an alkali metal plane) and an inorganic plane are alternately stacked, as an organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite (or inorganic metal halide perovskite) nanoparticle.

The 2D organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite may include a structure of ABX₃, A₂BX₄, ABX₄, or A_(n−1)B_(n)X_(3n+1) (where, n is an integer between 2 to 6). Here, the A is an organic ammonium or inorganic alkali metal material, the B is a metal material, and the X is a halogen element. For example, the A may be (CH₃NH₃)_(n), ((C_(x)H_(2x+1))_(n)NH₃)₂(CH₃NH₃)_(n), (RNH₃)₂, (C_(n)H_(2n+1)NH₃)₂, CF₃NH₃, (CF₃NH₃)_(n), ((CxF_(2x+1))_(n)NH₃)₂(CF₃NH₃)_(n), ((C_(x)F_(2x+1))_(n)NH₃)₂, (C_(n)F_(2n+1)NH₃)₂, (CH(NH₂)₂), C_(x)H_(2x+1)(C(NH₂)₂), Cs, Rb, K (where n is an integer greater than 1, and x is an integer greater than 1), or a combination thereof. Also, the B may be a divalent transition metal, a rare earth metal, an alkaline earth metal, Pb, Sn, Ge, Ga, In, Al, Sb, Bi, Po, or a combination thereof. Here, the rare earth metal may be a divalent rare earth metal, for example, Ge, Sn, Pb, Eu, or Yb. Also, the alkali earth metal may be, for example, Ca or Sr. Also, the X may be Cl, Br, I, or a combination thereof.

The organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite nanoparticle 100 according to the present invention may further include a plurality of organic ligands 120, inorganic binary compounds or combination thereof surrounding the above-described organic-inorganic-hybrid or metal halide perovskite nanocrystal 110. Each of the organic ligands 120 may be a material used as the surfactant and include alkyl halide. Thus, as described above, the alkyl halide used as the surfactant for stabilizing the surface of the precipitated organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite may become the organic ligand surrounding the surface of the organic-inorganic-hybrid metal halide perovskite nanocrystal.

If the alkyl halide surfactant has a short length, the size of formed nanocrystals is increased to exceed 900 nm. In this case, the light emission of the exciton may not occur by thermal ionization and the delocalization of the charge carrier in the large nanocrystal, and the exciton may be separated as the free charge and then annihilated.

That is, the size of the formed organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite nanocrystal is inversely proportional to the length of the alkyl halide surfactant used for forming the nanocrystal.

Thus, the size of the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite nanocrystal formed by using the alkyl halide having a predetermined length or more as the surfactant may be controlled to a predetermined size or less. For example, octadecyl-ammonium bromide may be used as the alkyl halide surfactant to form the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite nanocrystal having a size of a 900 nm or less.

Also, the inorganic metal halide perovskite having the 2D crystal structure may be a structure of A₂BX₄, ABX₄, or A_(n−1)Pb_(n)X_(3n+1) (where, n is an integer between 2 to 6).

The A may be an alkali metal, the B may be a divalent transition metal, a rare earth metal, an alkali earth metal, Pb, Sn, Ge, Ga, In, Al, Sb, Bi, Po, or a combination thereof, and the X may be Cl, Br, I, or a combination thereof. Here, the rare earth metal may be, for example, Ge, Sn, Pb, Eu, or Yb. Also, the alkali earth metal may be, for example, Ca or Sr.

The inorganic metal halide perovskite nanocrystal particle having the 2D structure according to the present invention may further include a plurality of organic ligands surrounding the above-described inorganic metal halide perovskite nanocrystal structure. Each of the organic ligands may include alkyl halide.

FIG. 7 illustrates both structures of an organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite nanocrystal and an inorganic metal halide perovskite nanocrystal.

Referring to FIG. 7 , it is seen that the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite (or the inorganic metal halide perovskite) nanocrystal structure according to an embodiment of the present invention includes an organic ammonium (or alkali metal) and halides.

Formation of Light Emitting Layer Through Spin-Assembly Process

FIG. 8 is a schematic view illustrating a process of forming a light emitting layer through a spin-assembly process according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 8 , an anchoring solution and an organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite nanoparticle solution including the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite nanocrystal structure are prepared.

The above-described anchoring solution is a solution including a resin giving adhesion having an anchoring effect. For example, 3-mercaptopropionic acid ethanolic solution may be used. It is preferable that the above-described anchoring solution has a concentration of 7 wt % to 12 wt %.

Then, the anchoring solution may be applied on the above-described light emitting layer coating member to form an anchoring agent layer.

Here, it is preferable that a coating rate ranges from 100 rpm to 5000 rpm, and a coating time ranges from 15 seconds to 150 seconds. When the coating rate is less than 1000 rpm, or the coating time is less than 15 seconds, the thin film may be non-uniform, and the solvent may not be completely evaporated.

Then, the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite nanoparticle solution is applied to the anchoring agent layer to form an anchored light emitting layer. As described above, when the anchored light emitting layer is formed by using the anchoring solution, a denser nanocrystal layer may be formed.

Then, a crosslinking agent layer may be formed on the anchored light emitting layer. When the crosslinking agent is formed, a denser perovskite nanocrystal layer may be formed. Thus, the ligand may be reduced in length, and charge injection into the nanocrystal may be smoother to improve luminescent efficiency and luminance of the light emitting device.

It is preferable that the crosslinking agent is a crosslinking agent having an X—R—X structure, for example, 1,2-ethanedithiol. After the crosslinking agent is mixed with a soluble solvent to perform the spin-coating.

Here, the step of applying the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite nanoparticle solution and the step of forming the crosslinking layer on the layer coated with the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite nanoparticle solution may be repeatedly alternately performed to adjust a thickness of the light emitting layer.

Here, it is preferable that a coating rate ranges from 100 rpm to 5000 rpm, and a coating time ranges from 15 seconds to 150 seconds. When the coating rate is less than 1000 rpm, or the coating time is less than 15 seconds, the thin film may be non-uniform, and the solvent may not completely evaporated.

Formation of Light Emitting Layer Through Floating Process

FIG. 9 is a schematic view illustrating a process of forming a light emitting layer through a floating process according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 9 , a solution including trioctylphosphine (TOP) and trioctylphosphine oxide (TOPO) is added to the solution including the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite nanoparticle. As the solution including the TOP and TOPO is added, the ligand of the organic perovskite nanoparticle may be substituted with the TOP and the TOPO.

Then, a solution including a triphenyl diamine (TPD) compound is added to the solution including the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite nanoparticle in which the ligand is substituted with the TOP and TOPO. For example, the TPD compound may be N,N′-diphenyl-N, N′-bis(3-methylphenyl)-(1,1′-biphenyl)-4, 4′diamine.

The solution including the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite nanoparticle in which the ligand is substituted with the TOP and TOPO and the solution including the TPD compound are mixed at a weight ratio of 100:3 to 100:7 to manufacture a TPD-organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite nanoparticle solution.

Then, the TPD-organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite nanoparticle solution is applied on the light emitting layer coating member to form the light emitting layer for the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite light emitting device. Here, the light emitting layer may be self-organized in a shape in which the organic semiconductor layer and the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite nanoparticle are successively stacked on the light emitting layer coating member to simplify the process.

Here, it is preferable that a coating rate ranges from 1000 rpm to 5000 rpm, and a coating time ranges from 15 seconds to 150 seconds. When the spin coating rate is less than 1000 rpm, or the coating time is less than 15 seconds, the thin film may be non-uniform, and the solvent may not completely evaporated.

Since the light emitting layer is formed through the floating process, an occurrence of pinhole defects may be removed to allow the charge injection into the nanocrystal to be smoother. Thus, the efficiency and the luminance of the light emitting device may be improved. Also, the perovskite nanocrystal may be adjusted in concentration within the organic semiconductor/perovskite nanocrystal mixing solution to adjust the first thin film without performing the spin-coating several times.

Formation of Light Emitting Layer Through Dry Contact Printing Process

FIG. 10 is a schematic view illustrating a process of forming a light emitting layer through a dry contact printing process according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 10 , a self-assembly monolayer may be formed on the light emitting layer coating member. Here, a member made of a silicon material may be used as the light emitting layer coating member. In detail, an ODTS-treated wafer in which a Si native wafer is dipped in an octadecyltrichlorosilane (ODTS) solution may be used.

Then, the solution including the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite nanoparticle is applied to the self-assembly monolayer to form an organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite nanoparticle layer. Finally, a stamp may come into contact with the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite nanoparticle layer to remove the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite nanoparticle layer by a desired pattern to form the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite nanoparticle layer on a second light emitting layer coating member.

The stamp may include at least one organic polymer selected from the group consisting of polyurethane), polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), polyethylene oxide (PEO), polystyrene (PS), polycaprolactone (PCL), polyacrylonitrile (PAN), poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA), polyimide, poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF), poly(n-vinylcarbazole) (PVK), and polyvinylchloride (PVC). The stamp may be manufactured by curing a stamp including the above-described materials on the silicon wafer.

As described above, when the dry contact printing process is used, the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite nanoparticle layer may be formed through the stamping process to solve the difficulty of substrate sensitivity, large-area assembly, and layer-by-layer stacking processes, which are problems in the existing wet process.

Formation of Light Emitting Layer Through Organic-Inorganic-Hybrid Perovskite-Organic Host Composite Formation Process

FIG. 11 is a schematic view illustrating a process of forming a light emitting layer through an organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite-organic host composite formation process according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 11 , in the step of forming the first thin film, the organic semiconductor is mixed with the solution including the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite nanoparticle to manufacture an organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite-organic semiconductor solution.

The organic semiconductor may be at least one selected from the group consisting of tris(8-quinolinolate) aluminum (Alq3), TAZ, TPQ1, TPQ2, bphen(4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline), BCP, BeBq₂, BAlq, 4,4′-N, N′-dicarbazole-biphenyl) (CBP), 9,10-di(naphthalen-2-yl) anthracene (ADN), tris(N-carbazolyl) triphenylamine) (TCTA), 1,3,5-tris (N-phenylbenzimidazole-2-yl) benzene (TPBI), 3-tert-butyl-9,10-di (naphth-2-yl) anthracene (TBADN), and E₃, but is not limited thereto.

Then, the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite-organic semiconductor solution is applied to form the light emitting layer. Here, it is preferable that a coating rate ranges from 1000 rpm to 5000 rpm, and a coating time ranges from 15 seconds to 150 seconds. When the spin coating rate is less than 1000 rpm, or the coating time is less than 15 seconds, the thin film may be non-uniform, and the solvent may not be completely evaporated.

Thus, in the light emitting layer of the present invention, the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite nanoparticle including the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite nanocrystal structure is applied to the light emitting layer coating member to form the first thin film. Thus, the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite having the crystal structure, in which the FCC and the BCC are combined with each other, may be formed in the nanocrystal particle light-emitter to form a lamellar structure in which the organic plane and the inorganic plate are alternately stacked, and also, the excitons may be confined in the inorganic plane to implement the high color purity. Also, after the perovskite is manufactured into the nanoparticle, the light emitting layer may be introduced to improve the luminescent efficiency and the luminance of the device.

As described above, when the light emitting layer is formed through the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite-organic host composite formation process, exciton-exciton annihilation that occurs because the nanocrystal is densely disposed in the existing perovskite nanocrystal layer may be prevented. Also, since an organic host or co-host having a bipolar property is used, a recombination zone may increase to prevent the exciton-exciton annihilation from occurring. Thus, roll-off occurring when the perovskite nanocrystal light emitting device is driven with high luminance may be reduced.

The conductive layer 31 may improve conductivity in the exciton buffer layer 30, and additionally, improve optical extraction by adjusting scattering, reflection, and absorption or give flexibility to improve mechanical strength.

The surface buffer layer 32 includes a fluorine-based material. The fluorine-based material is preferably a fluorine-based material having surface energy lower than that of the above-described conductive material and may have surface energy of 30 mN/m or less.

Also, the fluorine-based material may have hydrophobicity higher than that of the conductive polymer.

Here, in the surface buffer layer 32, the fluorine-based material may have a higher concentration on a second surface 32 b opposite to a first surface 32 a than that on the first surface 32 a adjacent to the conductive layer 31.

The fluorine-based material may be a perfluorinated ionomer or a fluorinated ionomer containing at least one F. Particularly, when the fluorine-based material is the fluorinated ionomer, the buffer layer may have a thick thickness, and phase separation of the conductive layer 31 and the surface buffer layer 32 may be prevented to form a uniform exciton buffer layer 30.

The surface buffer layer 32 may have a thickness of 20 nm to 500 nm, for example, 50 nm to 200 nm. When the thickness of the surface buffer layer 32 satisfies the above-described range, excellent work function characteristics, transmittance, and flexible characteristics may be provided.

The surface buffer layer 32 may be formed through thermal treatment after a mixed solution containing the above-described fluorine-based material and a solvent is applied on the conductive layer 31.

The formed exciton buffer layer 30 may have a thickness of about 50 nm to about 1000 nm. Since the conductive layer 31 is formed, the conductivity may be improved, and also, since the surface buffer layer 32 is formed, the surface energy may be reduced. Therefore, the luminescent characteristics may be maximized.

The surface buffer layer 32 may further include at least one additive selected from the group consisting of carbon nanotubes, graphenes, reduced oxide graphenes, metal nanowires, metal carbon nanotubes, semiconductor quantum dots, semiconductor nanowires, and metal nano dots. When the additive is further added, the conductivity of the exciton buffer layer 30 may be maximized.

Also, the surface buffer layer 32 may further include a crosslinking agent including a bis(phenyl azide) material. When the surface buffer layer further includes the crosslinking agent, composition separation due to a time and device driving may be prevented. Thus, resistance and the work function of the exciton buffer layer 30 may be reduced to improve stability and reproducibility of the light emitting device.

The bis(phenyl azide) material may be a bis(phenyl azide) material of the following Chemical Formula 20.

A method for forming the surface buffer layer 32 on the conductive layer 31 may use a coating method, a cast method, a Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) method), an ink-jet printing method, a nozzle printing method, a slot-die coating method, a doctor blade coating method, a screen printing method, a dip coating method, a gravure printing method, a reverse-offset printing method, a physical transfer method, a spray coating method, a chemical vapor deposition method, or a thermal evaporation method.

However, although the conductive layer 31 and the surface buffer layer 32 are successively deposited in the step of forming the exciton buffer layer 30 as described above, the conductive material and the fluorine-based material may be mixed with each other, and then, the mixture may be applied on the first electrode and thermally treated to form the exciton buffer layer 30.

In this case, since the mixed solution is thermally treated, the conductive layer 31 and the surface buffer layer 32 may be successively self-assembled on the first electrode 20. Therefore, the manufacturing process may be maximized.

The fluorine-based material may be a material having solubility of 90% or more, for example, solubility of 95% or more with respect to the polar solvent. Examples of the polar solvents include water, alcohols (methanol, ethanol, n-propanol, 2-propanol, n-butanol, etc.), ethylene glycol, glycerol, dimethylformamide (DMF), dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO), but is not limited thereto.

FIG. 13 is a schematic view illustrating an effect of an exciton buffer layer 30 according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 13 , the exciton buffer layer 30 according to an embodiment of the present invention may improve hole injection efficiency and serve as electron blocking to suppress quenching of the exciton.

The exciton buffer layer 30 may further include a crosslinking agent.

The crosslinking agent may be added to the exciton buffer layer 30 to prevent composition separation from occurring due to a time and device driving. When the surface buffer layer 32 is formed, deterioration in efficiency of the exciton buffer layer 30 due to the use of the solution may be prevented. Therefore, the stability and the reproducibility of the device may be improved.

The crosslinking agent may include at least one functional group selected from the group consisting of an amine group (—NH₂), a thiol group (—SH), and a carboxyl group.

The crosslinking agent may include at least one selected from the group consisting of a bis(phenyl azide)-based material, a diaminoalkane-based material, a dithiol-based material, dicarboxylate, an ethylene glycol di(meth)acrylate derivative, a methylenebisacrylamide derivative, and DVB.

A hole transport layer may be formed on the exciton buffer layer 30. The hole transport layer may be formed according to a method arbitrarily selected from various known methods such as a vacuum evaporation method, a spin-coating method, a cast method, an LB method, and the like. Here, if the vacuum deposition method is selected, although are different according to a target compound, a layer structure, a thermal property, and the like, deposition conditions may be selected within a deposition temperature range of 100 to 500° C., a vacuum degree range of 10⁻¹⁰ torr to 10⁻³ torr, and a deposition rate range of 0.01 Å/sec to 100 Å/sec. if the spin-coating method is selected, although are different according to a target compound, a layer structure, a thermal property, and the like, coating conditions may be selected within a coating rate range of 2000 rpm to 5000 rpm and a thermal treating temperature (a thermal treating temperature for removing the solvent after the coating) of 80° C. to 200° C.

The hole transport layer material may be selected from materials capable of transporting holes better than hole injection. The hole transport layer may be formed using a known hole transporting material, for example, an amine-based material having an aromatic condensed ring and a triphenylamine-based material.

More particularly, examples of the hole transporting material may include 1,3-bis(carbazol-9-yl)benzene (MCP), 1,3,5-tris(carbazol-9-yl)benzene (TCP), 4,4′,4″-tris(carbazol-9-yl)triphenylamine (TCTA), 4,4′-bis(carbazol-9-yl)biphenyl (CBP), N,N′-bis(naphthale_(n−1)-yl)-N,N′-bis(phenyl)-benzidine (NPB), N,N′-bis(naphthalen-2-yl)-N,N′-bis(phenyl)-benzidine (R-NPB), N,N′-bis(naphthalen-1-yl)-N,N′-bis(phenyl)-2,2′-dimethylbenzidine (α-NPD),

di-[4-(N,N-ditolyl-amino)-phenyl]cyclohexane (TAPC), N,N,N′,N′-tetra-naphthalen-2-yl-benzidine (β-TNB), N4,N4,N4′,N4′-tetra(biphenyl-4-yl)biphenyl-4,4′-diamine (TPD15), poly(9,9-dioctylfluorene-co-bis-N,N′-(4-butylphenyl)-bis-N,N′-phenyl-1,4-phenylenediamine) (PFB), poly(9,9′-dioctylfluorene-co-N-(4-butylphenyl)diphenylamine) (TFB), poly(9,9′-dioctylfluorene-co-bis-N,N′-(4-butylphenyl)-bis-N,N′-phenylbenzidine) (BFB), poly(9,9-dioctylfluorene-co-bis-N,N′-(4-methoxyphenyl)-bis-N,N′-phenyl-1,4-phenylenediamine) (PFMO), but is not limited thereto.

The hole transport layer may have a thickness of 5 nm to 100 nm, for example, 10 nm to 60 nm. When the hole transport layer has a thickness within the above-described range, satisfactory hole transport characteristics may be achieved without increasing in driving voltage. However, the hole transport layer may be omitted.

Thus, the light emitting device including the exciton buffer layer 30 may have excellent efficiency, luminance, and lifetime characteristics without forming the hole injection layer. Thus, costs for manufacturing the light emitting device may be reduced.

When it is assumed that the hole transport layer is formed, the work function of the hole transport layer may be Z eV, where Z may be a real number between 5.2 to 5.6, but is not limited thereto.

Y₁ that is a work function value of a first surface 32 a of the surface buffer layer 32 of the exciton buffer layer 30 may range from 4.6 to 5.2, for example, 4.7 to 4.9. Also, Y₁ that is a work function value of a second surface 32 b of the surface buffer layer 32 of the exciton buffer layer 30 may be equal to or less than that of the fluorine-based material contained in the surface buffer layer 32. For example, the Y2 may be 5.0 to 6.5, e.g., 5.3 to 6.2, but is not limited thereto.

Referring to FIG. 12 c , a solution including an organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite nanoparticle including an organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite nanocrystal structure is applied on the exciton buffer layer 30 to form a light emitting layer 40 including the above-described first thin film of nanoparticles.

The contents relating to the formation of the light emitting layer have the same constitution and function as those of the ‘<light layer for organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite light emitting device>’, reference will be made to the foregoing description.

Thereafter, referring to FIG. 12 d , a second electrode 50 is formed on the light emitting layer 40.

The second electrode 50 is an electrode into which an electron is injected and made of a conductive material. The second electrode 50 may be a metal, particularly, Al, Au, Ag, Cu, Pt, W, Ni, Zn, Ti, Zr, Hf, Cd, or Pd.

A process of depositing the second electrode 50 may include physical vapor deposition (PVD), chemical vapor deposition (CVD), sputtering, pulsed laser deposition (PLD), thermal evaporation, electron beam evaporation, atomic layer deposition (ALD), and molecular beam epitaxy (MBE).

The light emitting device includes a first electrode 20, an exciton buffer layer 30 which is disposed on the first electrode 20 and in which a conductive layer 31 including a conductive material and a surface buffer layer 32 including a fluorine-based material are successively stacked, a light emitting layer 40 disposed on the exciton buffer layer 30 and including an organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite nanoparticle light-emitter, and a second electrode 50 disposed on the light emitting layer 40.

Here, since the exciton buffer layer 30 is formed, the light emitting device having the low work function and the high conductivity may be manufactured. In the light emitting layer 40 including the first thin film, which includes the nanoparticle including the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite nanocrystal structure, organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite having a crystal structure, in which an FCC and a BCC are combined with each other, may be formed in the nanoparticle, an a lamellar structure, in which an organic plane and an inorganic plate are alternately stacked, may be formed, and excitons may be confined in the inorganic plane to implement high color purity.

The light emitting device may be a laser diode or an LED.

For another example, the organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite nanocrystal particle and the inorganic metal halide perovskite nanocrystal particle may be applied to a solar cell by using a photoactive layer including the above-described organic-inorganic-hybrid perovskite nanocrystal particle and the inorganic metal halide perovskite nanocrystal particle. The solar cell may include a first electrode, a second electrode, and a photoactive layer disposed between the first electrode and the second electrode and including the above-described perovskite nanocrystal particle.

Hereinafter, experimental examples will be described in order to facilitate understanding of the present invention. It should be understood, however, that the following examples are for the purpose of promoting understanding of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.
